Nothing I know...

Another late night...I just can't sleep
Frightened wakw by the things
Seeping into my creek.

Can I stop the fatal flow?
Can I rage my way through the undertow??

See the water rise around me,..
See me look to it's edge to be free....
I see your calvary surrounding
NO ONE sees what YOU'VE done to me,....

You say there's nothing like it...
wash me with your pain
Immobilized in your river
We'll never be the same.

Can I stop the fatal flow?
Can I rage my way through the undertow??

There's no way to stop--
There's no where to go...
Nothing left to believe in,
Nothing I know...

There's someone in the mirror
It's no one that I know
For me I'll make believe...
To you...
It's,... nothing
To you it's nothing I know
Put me in coach...I'm ready to
Fuck up...the USA...
Look at me...I can rig...
The presidency!!!!

    the lines above are the ones that got my attention the first time I whisked through you poem. I think they're really good and I like the fact you used them more than once, nice touch. :)

    when I read the poem again (better this time) I really liked it. I think the water/flood-metaphore is really good.

    all in all, I really like this one. it's good. :)
    I guess I've got nothin more to say. nice job! :D

    Such a feeling of hopelessness. It's well written in my opinion.
